    Summary

    "You were awake." He observes—no, he knew all along—that you were feigning sleep.

    Weakly shaking your head, you correct him, "I just woke up." It's a bad lie, but your other option was confirming what he already knew. The heat of his palms haven't left your sides, his fingertips dip beneath the soft fabric. "...Are you going to continue?" you ask him.

    A part of you hopes he wouldn't. "Would you like me to?" Your pulse speeds.

    Wordlessly, you raise your hips, allowing him to fully slip off your underwear. It's not quite an answer, but it is a response that he takes in stride.

    Or, alternatively: Despite his endless patience, Capitano wasn't one to shy away from using physical means to resolve a lovers' spat.

    Summary

    You have everything you could ever want- your work as a Turk provides you with a job you’re good at, decent pay, and a good crowd to chill out with on your downtime.

    So it’s a bit of a wonder to you, when a high level Shinra officer presents you with an NDA several sheets thick and a confidential contract several sheets thicker, that you not only accept the terms of service, but actively look forward to them.

    Summary

    “I don’t know what you’re asking me to do,” you say, a bit helplessly, and you’re not sure if you’re still imploring the boy, or the gods themselves for this sick new game they’ve devised for you.

     

    Please, not me, not again.

     

    Not to him.

     

    “I’m asking you to kill him,” the boy says, flatly, like he’s asking you for more butter for his bread, not to face the man you gave up everything for.

    Or, what to do when your evil ex-boyfriend forces you out of retirement.
